Porsche Macan Forums

Thought I’d get her winter coat on whilst we have a few dry/warm ish days.
Plastics and Wheels prepped and protected with CQuartz DLux.
Body work was given as light buffing with Scholl S20 to remove any residual wash swirls and clay marring, followed by two coats of Cquartz UK3.0 followed by a quick wipe down with CQuartz Reload.
Tyres to be dressed with Meguirs endurance gel when my new bottle arrives, then onto the interior.
A few days hard work, but she is gleaming and ready to take what ever the British weather chucks at her.

Nice work, looks great!

Thanks..was blooming hard work, but having been out in it today after having finished it yesterday, it looks amazing in the sun.

I paid someone to do mine as I could not spend that amount of time doing it. Looks great though.

Did you do anything with the interior leather?

I haven’t started the on the interior yet, but my go to for leather would be gliptone leather cleaner and conditioner.

I used Gliptone in my old BM 535d, but in the Macan the leather is perforated and the cream just gets stuck in the perforations. I’ve not yet found anything that I can use.

Try using less product and put the product on a microfibre cloth first, rub it into the cloth so there’s no cleaner visible then wipe the leather down with the microfibre. Takes a b it longer but stops lose cream getting into the perforations.
Also get a soft bristle brush (like for shoe polishing) and if you do deposit cleaner in the holes, gently agitate it with the brush before wiping away.
If all else fails, a bucket of very hot water, a pair of sturdy waterproof gloves and a microfibre cloth should help
Lift some of the grime out. You could always use a little apc in water, but you’ll still have to condition after.

....those scratches above and below the doors!
